| I would like to find a 16 gauge colt coltsman pump. I have a 12 gauge, which weighs 6 1/2 lbs. Anybody seen one of them? They were only made in the early 60's. Made in France.Preferebly 26 or 28" barrel. 26" were choked I/C and 28" modified |

| I thought they were made with the Franche frame Franchi, but then I was told at a gunshop they were made in France. They are nice to carry being so light. I have used it duck hunting with bismuth and it handles well, you feel it though if you use three inch shells. Would like to find one in a sixteen. |
